Spooky Sprint huge success for local United Way!
Our in-person Spooky Sprint 5K Run/Walk was a huge success on Sunday, Oct. 24! While last year’s sprint was a virtual 5K, this one was in-person at Hazel Ruby McQuain Riverfront Park! There is still a virtual option this week for those who couldn't attend or preferred not to participate in person.
This was the second year for the Spooky Sprint, and the 5K was once again being sponsored by WVU Medicine.
Our winners were Matt Kasson, first place, 24:27; James Tingler, second place, 24:51; and Chelsea Betts, third place, 25:03!
